Dégradation photocatalytique de la lignine

La biomasse est considérée comme une source disponible et une alternative viable au pétrole. La lignine est actuellement une des formes de biomasse la plus ciblée car elle possède une structure polymérique unique contenant des unités aromatiques. Pour accéder aux motifs aromatiques a faible masse moléculaire, les chimistes ont ciblé la liaison ?-O-4 de la […]

Modélisation de mutations mendéliennes de RIPK1 par prime editing

Le projet étudiera par une modélisation par prime-editing dans une lignée marcophagique des anomalies génétiques d’une protéine régulant la destinée cellulaire entre réponse inflammatoire et mort cellulaire. La compréhension des mécanismes régulant ces deux phénomènes antagonistes devrait permettre le développement de thérapies ciblées dans les domaines de la cancérologie et de l’inflammation.

Analyse de la variabilité phénotypique et génomique des groupes socioculturels émergents à Montréal au XVIIe-XVIIIe siècle. Analyse comparative du cimetière catholique de la première église Notre-Dame (1691-1796) à Montréal

L’établissement au XVIIe-XVIIIe siècle d’immigrants d’origine française à Montréal a entraîné le développement d’un centre urbain en marge d’un vaste territoire Autochtone. Si les fondateurs de Montréal y entrevoyaient une population biculturelle, mais catholique, l’élite commerciale et religieuse a imprimé son identité sur l’histoire de la ville, en marginalisant la présence autochtone. Le cimetière de […]

Assessments of cortical responses to non-invasive brain stimulation

The proposed research project will aim to measure the reliability of changes in brain activity induced by repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS). rTMS is a non-invasive therapy that has been used to evoke changes in local and network-level brain activity in various clinical populations, including stroke and depression. The proposed project will test rTMS effectiveness […]

Design and Development of the Smart Friction Pendulum System (FPS) for High-Rise Buildings to cope with seismic loads

Buildings are vulnerable to moderate and powerful earthquakes. In order to keep their functionality during and after the seismic events, structural control systems are the promising candidates to be embedded in the buildings in which they dissipate the energy towards the building and separates the movements between the soil and the infrastructure. One of the […]
